to parents and teachers at the school ahead of Monday’s teacher strike
, Denver Discovery School said in a Facebook post that students would not have access to their lockers and said their cell phones would be confiscated for the duration of the school day.

Denver Public Schools spokeswoman Anna Alejo told Denver7 the district does not have a position on cell phone policies as the decision to ban cell phones is left up to each school to decide.

It's unclear at this time if Denver Discovery School has backed off of its decision to bar cell phones and allow students to have access to their lockers.

Parents whose students would not be attending Monday were asked to call the school’s attendance line at 720-424-4791.

The district has said schools will be operating normally Monday and that regular attendance rules will be in place. Final negotiations before Monday’s strike failed Saturday when the union's representatives walked out after the district’s latest offer.
